Italian tennis sensation, Jannik Sinner, is enjoying the best phase of his tennis career. He has already won four titles this year and is looking to add another one at the ongoing ATP World Tour Finals. Earlier today, he overcame the challenge of Daniil Medvedev in the semifinals to book his place in the summit clash of the year-ending championship. In the process, he matched the record of his idol, Roger Federer.

Sinner has been an ardent fan of the Swiss Maestro since his childhood. With his amazing performance at the ongoing ATP Finals, he has showcased his potential by matching his feat. Is he the successor to King Roger’s impeccable presence on the ATP Tour?

Jannik Sinner matches Roger Federer’s unique feat at the ATP Finals

The Italian star has won all his group-stage matches before defeating Medvedev today to reach the finals. Amongst his victories in Turin, wins over the likes of Novak Djokovic and Holger Rune, not only helped him top the Green Group, but also made him the top contender for the year-end championships. However, it was the record of the Swiss Maestro matched by Sinner that has caught everyone’s attention.

With four successive victories, Jannik Sinner is the first player to reach the championship match of the ATP Finals undefeated before turning 23 since Roger Federer in 2003.

Federer achieved the same feat in 2003 when he was placed along with the likes of Andre Agassi in the same group. Not only did he top the group, but also went on to win the title, going undefeated in that tournament. Sinner can match his idol if he can win the finals tomorrow.

Further, Sinner will be proud of his performances as he has produced some of the best tennis to emerge victorious. However, despite matching Federer’s feat, the Italian star still has one Roger Federer regret that has failed to materialize.

Sinner’s only regret about the Swiss Maestro

During an interview, Sinner revealed his unhappiness about not playing against the Swiss maestro. While he was making his way into the ATP Tour, Federer was nearing the end of his career. As a result, the two never met on the court.

Talking about this in an interview with Corriere Della Sera, he said, “I have been lucky in my life, but I miss Federer. I accept it; it’s part of the game. Official matches are no longer possible, maybe in the future, we will face each other in an exhibition. However, I wouldn’t change anything: I am happy to be a tennis player of this era. The new generation offers different styles, characters, and personalities.”

Sinner will face the winner of the other semifinal between Djokovic and Alcaraz. It’ll be interesting to see if he can maintain his winning run in the championship match. Do you think he is the rightful heir to the legacy of Roger Federer?
